The ex-judge was convicted in February of 12 counts that included racketeering, money laundering, mail fraud and tax evasion.</p> <p>In addition to his prison sentence, Ciavarella was ordered to pay nearly $1.2 million in restitution.</p> <p>At his sentencing, Ciavarella acknowledged his illegal acceptance of money from Mericle. But he denied ever jailing a juvenile in exchange for money.</p> <p>Once the case against Ciavarella surfaced, special investigative panels began reviewing cases he handled from 2003 to 2008. The Pennsylvania Supreme Court concluded that he denied about 5,000 juveniles, some as young as ten, their constitutional rights, leading to the vacating of their convictions.</p> <p>Among the young people exploited by Ciavarella were 15-year-old Hillary Transue, who was sentenced to three months at a juvenile detention center for mocking an assistant principal on a MySpace page; and 13-year-old Shane Bly, who was sent to a boot camp for two weekends after being accused of trespassing in a vacant building.</p> <p>Another judge, Michael T. Conahan, used his position to shut down the county-run juvenile detention center and redirect juvenile detainees to the private prisons. He pleaded guilty to racketeering conspiracy.</p> <p><a href="http://www.allgov.com/news/controversies/judge-sentenced-to-28-years-in-prison-for-selling-kids-to-private-prisons?news=843116" target="_blank">Source</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/08/11/mark-ciavarella-jr_n_924324.html" target="_blank">Huff Post article from October 2011</a></p> </blockquote>http://elspenny.tumblr.com/post/49189822474http://elspenny.tumblr.com/post/49189822474Mon, 29 Apr 2013 10:57:56 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/3b39eeb3b7efae0cd0b9779d50227b58/tumblr_ml2azpPyWI1qzgfbio1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://elspenny.tumblr.com/post/47654205189http://elspenny.tumblr.com/post/47654205189Wed, 10 Apr 2013 16:09:25 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/0320a766f5a45cf51966fbf258a796b9/tumblr_ml0moqWQM81qzgfbio1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://elspenny.tumblr.com/post/47584673117http://elspenny.tumblr.com/post/47584673117Tue, 09 Apr 2013 18:26:50 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/fe5efc59efc07a279ae7550ac23df87f/tumblr_ml0mk77nOD1qzgfbio1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/48645d15d5de4c0b03813b7dd84d0fbd/tumblr_ml0mk77nOD1qzgfbio2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/>http://elspenny.tumblr.com/post/47584436649http://elspenny.tumblr.com/post/47584436649Tue, 09 Apr 2013 18:24:07 -0700<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/96ed4a30c65021c14a94181ca2e465f7/tumblr_ml0minaTQt1qzgfbio1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/5fe7f46b3dde4bd936005011ec83633b/tumblr_ml0minaTQt1qzgfbio2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/8f81bd087297bc662ed3cc708578a19e/tumblr_ml0minaTQt1qzgfbio3_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/ac45dc38bc122110e2ff0b20aaf699b7/tumblr_ml0minaTQt1qzgfbio4_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/>http://elspenny.tumblr.com/post/47584364616http://elspenny.tumblr.com/post/47584364616Tue, 09 Apr 2013 18:23:09 -0700<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/453c685437fa1c059b694b77dac83c00/tumblr_ml0mgvAma61qzgfbio1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://elspenny.tumblr.com/post/47584254151http://elspenny.tumblr.com/post/47584254151Tue, 09 Apr 2013 18:22:07 -0700<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/63106516" width="400" height="300" frameborder="0"></iframe><br/><br/><p>pour with vigour</p>http://elspenny.tumblr.com/post/47086915821http://elspenny.tumblr.com/post/47086915821Wed, 03 Apr 2013 21:55:52 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/b12e9ff20cdb1c6e7212f92190dd60b7/tumblr_mkigtsjNuM1qzgfbio1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://elspenny.tumblr.com/post/46739678136http://elspenny.tumblr.com/post/46739678136Sat, 30 Mar 2013 23:03:28 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/0c036fa0ed77f037bc85c2c1a7ec33e3/tumblr_mkidpg4Y0C1qzgfbio1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://elspenny.tumblr.com/post/46735422345http://elspenny.tumblr.com/post/46735422345Sat, 30 Mar 2013 21:56:03 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/6f672f76a417e7a113883b62e5dc765d/tumblr_mk2toqWl3Z1qzgfbio1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Thank god for you.</p>http://elspenny.tumblr.com/post/46007084168http://elspenny.tumblr.com/post/46007084168Fri, 22 Mar 2013 12:19:38 -0700<iframe width="400" height="299" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/h3MxEHQk644?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://prettythingstv.tumblr.com/post/44554266764/dirty-girls-shot-in-1996-and-edited-in-2000-this" target="_blank">prettythingstv</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><strong>Dirty Girls</strong></p> <p><em>Shot in 1996 and edited in 2000, this is a short documentary about a group of 13-year-old riot grrrls who were socially ostracized at school by their peers and upperclassmen.
